TESTIMONIAL
OF
ABRAHAM DEARING
To the value of English Stock Food
manufactured by C. Lutz, Exeter.
This is to certify that I htive used
English Stock Food, for calves, milch
cows and young pigs; and in all cases
have found it most satisfactory. The
calves have grown faster and done
better than ever before. The /ankh
cows have improved in condition. The
flow of milk htts increased 20 per cent.
,and is of greater richness, The young
'se:pigs have done better 011 EIlgliS11 Stock
'Food, than I ever knew them to do be-
,l'ore. English Stock Food is a most
excellent and valuable article aed
should be used by all stock letisers. It
is cheap as compttred with other foods.
Price 14 -pounds for $1.

if not Weeks, in a rboin and bed which
were sickening to look at. .An aged
.brother offered 00 assist her, hut she
persistently refuse to accept the sligh
'est -help, and as a result the. Medical
Health Officer was -'called in and, un-
der his instructions, three women were,
engaged who went through a regular
house-cleaningperformance and des-
troyed almost everything - about the
place by 'fire: Bed, Mattress, pillows,'
etc., Were purchased at the expense ' of
the cOrporatioti,, and . kind neighbors
furnished sheets, bed -covering, night-
dresses, 'etc.' The house And the wo-
man's persOn,.are now in a more clean-

-Mitchell: The clergy of the town
have come into collision with the town
authorities over the approaching horse
races. They are against gam bli g and
the selling of "pools," to which no one
can properly object, but they refuse to
rest their case here and made a demand
on the Mayor to see the deed of the
Keterson Park, where the horse races
are to be held, with a view, it is sup-
posed, to stop the races if possible. The
Mayor refused to acceed to their. re-
quest, telling them that they are not
property holders and have no right to
make such a demand,and that it would
be much better if they would quietly
attend to their own business. In the
stand he has taken, whether right or
wrong,he seems to have a large major-
ity of the ratepayers at his back, and
there is not a doubt bn t the excitement
worked up over the matter, if the
weather should be favorable, will result
in the meet being the most successful
ever held in Mitchell. A report of a
meeting of the trustees of the Metho-
dist, church, condemning the Mayor's
action and upholding the course of the
Ministerial Association, r111110r says,
will appear in this week's Recorder,
and the Turf Association hopes that
the rumor may turn out true, as even
the few it will reach will help towards
the saccess Of the meet on May 24th.

VVTLL INVESTIG.ATE
Mrs. James Gardiner, of the fourth
COliCession of -rest Luther, about, five
miles from Arthur- village, died dt, her
home setcently, it; is elaimed by sheer
neglect, la) V111,1 (l) 111d1Jl11l tiall has
been expressed. Indeed, so much that
the facts have been placed_ in the hands
of County Crown Attolerey Peterson,
who ordered an invest,igation to be
made by High Constable Merewether.
An inquest Ives held but was adjourned
till Tuesday. The facts, tIccording to
the Gaelpla Mercury, appears to be as
follows: - About 12 clays before her
death Mrs. .James Gardiner, gave birth,
to n child, there being neither nurse
nor doctor present. The mother, as a
consequence, was not properly- attended
to, and she was quite ill, brit as the fam-
ily belonged to a sect, of some kind
which is averse to employing doctors,
110 medical man was sentefor, and the
mother died, of septic poisoning, leav-
ing a family of seven small children..
It is said that. she expeese,ed a desire to
have a doctor called in a few nights
before her death, and that her husband
promised to secure one next morning
if slae then insisted. Next morning
Wm. Gardiner, brother of the husband
ancl who was a sort of preacher among
the sect, called, ancl on being requested
agreed to get a doctor, but, it is alleged
made the stipulation that the horse
must take the right road through God's
direction. He started on the trip, but
the horse turned off the road into a
place he had been in the habit of going
to, and the doctor was not procured.
Subseeptently the poor woinan died ha
great agony.
